Intro to Quiltville Mystery & ROADTRIP!!!!

 It's Quiltville Mystery Time!!!!
(Click on the Quiltville to go to Her Blog)

My favorite season of the year!  
And I am home with my STASH so I can SEW!!!
I'll be posting more as each clue comes out after Black Friday, November 26, 2021

Meanwhile in the Quilt zone...

This was my Stash Enhancement from the Missouri Star Quilt Company.
Neutrals for the Quiltville Mystery, of course.

This was my selfie with Jenny, she was in the mountains of Montana.
recovering from her Book signing.
Janessa brought my copy from home that arrived the night we left.
I read it on my trip and started it a 2nd time, because I could.

I enjoyed our trip to pick up our stuff from the Mission 
and be there for our Son and his beautiful Bride make their vows along the Missouri River.

It was a little chilly at Eagle Bluff Ranch, they provided gray striped, fleece blankets. 

Jeff told us this venue was built just last year, in June 2020

It was so fun to meet her parents at the rehearsal and eat Kansas City BBQ from Slaps

We love her already.
Welcome to the family Chey!

Ben was there!!!
He asked for me to bring him some Pumpkin Chocolate Chip cookies.

I did have a day to Play with Sister Bennett.
Of course we went to Baker's Candies in Greenwood!
Gotta stock up on Chocolate!

The Antique store was on Hwy 80 on the way back to Omaha.
This picture was taken for inspiration. Love the pink Border.
 I'm making a little memory Quilt for President and Sister Bennett.
I got the center part done before leaving from Omaha.
I think that cute border will be great on this little quilt.
I did the little hearts on 3.5" squares, EEP.  They are my favorite.
I put in a few surprises, fussy-cut.

When I got home this was my Cactus!
I found out it's a Thanksgiving Cactus.
Just look at all those BLOOMS!

On the very last day I stitched up this little Blue Bird for Riley Blake.
They have the pattern free on their website for Pieced applique and Paper-Pieced birds.
He is SEW Cute.

More about our trip on the next Posting.
Way too many pictures to add on here.

The Wedding, Mormon Trail Center, MSQC, Liberty Jail, Independence, 
Mt Rushmore, Fall Colors in BIG SKY Country.

WOW Wednesday - Way Back Machine

When we opened our Mission Letters on the Laptop last night
I remarked that we had been there!
The year was PRE-BLOG by a year - 2007
 Brant & Tina 
Brant pulled the Handcart with Paul!

 All of us at the Mormon Trail Center
 at Historic Winter Quarters
In March 2020 we will report to the MTC and soon after we will be right back there!
On the countdown --- 131 days
The Winter Quarters Temple in 2007
I guess we'll be retaking this picture...
 The sound I made when I heard Paul read where we were going is the same sound 
I made when the Prophet announced Moses Lake was getting a Temple in April.  
We will serve for 18 months.
Our Family is already planning their Vacations.

I see on the Map that the Quilt Museum in Lincoln, Nebraska is in the Mission Boundaries.
I'll be wanting to making the drive there on one of our first Preparation days.
